I don't think he hates anybody. He spent his whole life advocating for scientific materialism starting in a time when that was a radical departure from conventional thinking. That's his sphere of thought, so he's being blind-sided by the Muslim thing. To him, it's a distraction. His remarks on the God of the Old Testament are scriptural commentary, in reaction to the various commandments to the Israelites to badly mistreat their enemies. As such, they represent a common sentiment of free-thinking Bible readers. All in a context of a conventionally Christian society, mind you. So essentially, he's an anachronism.
I think that someone who would advocate taking my children away from me so that I don’t infect them with religion qualifies as hating me, and hating my children.
There is nothing original in Dawkins either. This kind of coasting on the values of tolerance in the Western Christian civilization while seeking publicity by undermining it is at least as new as Voltaire. His other idea, that God is a human construct invented in the environment of insufficiently developed science is from the same stupid era, first offered by Laplace. He seems to be new only because he is good at being noisy.
Also, as a Christian, I come across critical commentary on glorification of violence in the Old Testament often, since Christians have a task unique to them reconciling the Old Testament with the New. None of these commentators are atheists, or have no clue about science, nor need to be. To us, Dawkins with his ideas about evilhood of the biblical God comes across as plain ignorant.
